 :: For now, uninstall the add-on, and you can either [http://www.10deam.com/weave/weave-020-ppc-unofficial.xpi use the community-provided PowerPC Weave 0.20 build] (unofficial, but recommended) or build your own using the instructions [http://wiki.mozilla.org/Labs/Weave/Building#Building_Weave_0.20_on_MacOSX_for_PPC to compile Weave 0.20] (for the more adventuresome).
+== Configuration Parameters ==
+:;extensions.weave.schedule
+::This controls whether or not Weave synchronizes on a schedule. Values are 1 (the default, sync on a schedule; internally set to every 30 seconds), or 0 (sync manually).
+:;extensions.weave.syncOnQuit.enabled
+::This controls whether or not Weave will sync when Firefox is closed. Values are true (default) and false. Note, however, that Weave does not have the ability to stop an ongoing sync. If a scheduled sync is in progress when Firefox is shut down it will abort, probably leaving a stale lock on the server, and possibly also leaving the server in an inconsistent state (which could require a wipe).  Sync on quit avoids that problem because it waits until the sync is finished until exiting. If you turn it off, Firefox will just quit right away. Therefore, if you disable sync on quit, you should probably set extensions.weave.schedule to 0 (manual).
